Tech Mahindra Limited has announced the allotment of 45,105 equity shares to eligible employees as part of its employee stock option programs. The company’s Securities Allotment Committee approved this issuance on November 12, 2025.
The new shares have been issued under two existing employee stock option schemes:
| Plan | Number of Shares |
| Employee Stock Option Plan-2014 (ESOP-2014) | 30,405 |
| Employee Stock Option Scheme-2018 (ESOP-2018) | 14,700 |
| Total | 45,105 |
Each equity share carries a face value of ₹5, and the exercise price for employees is also ₹5 per share. This means no additional premium has been charged on these shares.
After this allotment, the company’s total issued shares stand at 97,96,60,627, while the total issued share capital has increased to ₹4,89,83,03,135.
The newly allotted shares will rank pari passu, meaning they hold equal status and rights with the existing equity shares of Tech Mahindra.
The allotment has been carried out in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) regulations. Both the BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) had previously approved these stock option schemes.
Employee Stock Option Plans (ESOPs) are a common practice among technology companies to reward and retain skilled employees. By offering shares at a nominal price, companies allow employees to benefit from the firm’s growth and align their interests with those of shareholders.
This issue represents a minor increase in Tech Mahindra’s total outstanding shares. The change is too small to significantly affect the company’s market capitalization or earnings per share (EPS).
| Period | Change |
| 1 Day | +0.47% |
| 5 Days | +3.49% |
| 1 Month | +0.83% |
| 6 Months | -6.96% |
| 1 Year | -12.69% |
| 5 Years | +74.41% |
Through this allotment, Tech Mahindra continues its practice of encouraging employee participation and ownership. While the addition of 45,105 shares is a small change in overall shareholding, it reflects the company’s steady focus on employee engagement and long-term value creation.
